When my third child found rowing as her thing, my life changed forever. 2 years ago someone at my daughter's school asked her class if anyone wanted to learn to row. She did a learn to row course with the school coach. At the end of the first session she said "I love rowing Mum. In the second session she rowed in the middle of a coxed quad and she said she wantedto do rowing as a sport. In her third session she rowed in stroke seat in the quad and when I picked her up that afternoon she said "I absolutley love stroke mum- it is me and I will own stroke". She jiggled and squirmed as she used adjectives and adverbs that made it pretty obvious she had experienced sheer joy at making a scull move through water and she had found rowing as her thing.This blog will contain many things somehow related to my and her rowing life.
